Back catalogue – LX-300+

The Perfect Choice for Affordable, Compact Printing
This powerful little printer has what it takes to get the job done. It's predecessor, the best-selling LX-300, was already a winner. Now, the LX-300+ takes that performance a step further with faster throughput, more versatile paper handling, and an energy-efficient new design. It's a dot matrix printer that makes the competition want to head for the hills.
Significantly Fast Throughput
The LX-300+ now offers significantly faster throughput for higher productivity. In fact, Draft mode output at 10cpi is 25% faster than before, and there's a new High-Speed Draft mode that delivers an astonishing 337 characters per second! An even pleasanter surprise is that the LX-300+ is still one of the quietest printers in its class.
Improved Paper Handling
Versatile paper handling is something our printers are famous for, and the LX-300+ is no exception. In fact, it outdoes its predecessor with a new bottom-feed paper path that's ideal for handling complex, multi-page forms. Even on multi-page forms that are five layers thick, the LX-300+ delivers crisp, clean printouts to the very last page.
User-Friendly Software
User-friendly software lets you monitor and control the LX-300+ from your PC. For MS-DOS users, our Epson Remote! provides a streamlined, easy-to-use interface, and for Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows 4.0 users, there's full-featured driver with the real-time monitoring convenience of Epson Status Monitor 3.
Reliability
Energy-efficient electronics and a redesigned print head keep power consumption low, and when the printer is idle, a new Sleep mode saves you even more money. Rugged construction and premium-quality components assure long service life with minimum downtime.
